Former Lions coach Jim Caldwell gives health update, finally explains two watches

In an interview on Glover Quin's podcast "The DB Room," former Detroit Lions coach Jim Caldwell provided an optimistic update on his health, revealed the mystery behind why he wore two watches during games and gave credence to two long-held fan beliefs regarding his employment with the Lions.

Caldwell, who coached the Lions from 2014-17, joined the Miami Dolphins as a quarterbacks coach in 2019, but abruptly left the position a few months later to address a health issue.

A year later, Caldwell confirmed his health was in a good place after implementing some lifestyle changes.
